Council, president, editor and secretary of the DurHam 'Herald ftMishing : Company respectively. These men are dose .obserrerrBnd we say truthfully there is no stronger edRscial page found in the State thhn 'hat of the Herald. After an evening spent in this good town Editor Keener went heme and proceeded to -tall n* Koxboro as it impressed him. Read' the article, it is published on t^c front page of this issue, and see how "otHjrs see us." While his remarks ure very complimentary, they are rue, foe our besetting sin has been '.hat we were too modest to 1ft the "mtside world know what we were doing. Bat that day is passed, and now vith our wide-awake Chamber of Commerce the world will learn more ft Roxboro and having learned more vifl begin to. take ua at our true val 10. Oar hatjis off to Editor Keener ?pr tH!? splendid advertisement. That is a aplendid tribute to Suvhicfi we are publishing elsewhere, t was indeed, a fortunate day when tev. J. A.

During all these years he as been one of our closest and most .shied friends and we take pleasure ,'n telling to the world some of his ,-y>od works. t % The time for a place for the farmrs to gather and sell tH.-ir produce has^fiout passed for this season, but m sincerely hope ere another season . approaches that somewhere will be bund where they con come in and dispose of their- surplus vegetables; butts, yen. .iiH ., ! tmrl- ll.-i_ t bushel of apples and o'rl-r fruits ' T? to-waste in this County simply be-mm cae larmer is too proud and ~ -ve glory. in his pride, to taKe it to own' and then peddle it from house a house.

COMMERCE DEPARTMENT Here's the Record for five weeks. Starting without an office, on the sidewalk, you might say, without a stenographer or even a typewriter, with seme debts and no cash, while? The average chamber of commerce has an cslshlisH.vi place of business office equipment and a clericale force Getting temporary quarters through the kindness and public spirit of certain citizens, borrowing a typewritten, getting stationery printed, buying a typewriter and operating it on . ne dcx and using another for a desk. Getting cat the statements for the months of September and October, opening the boojds, ,organizing .the office, getting acquainted, analyzing 'he conditions, collecting dues having conferences, awaiting delayed mail, etc., etc.,-'until NOW WE ARE IN THE SADDLE! Out of 224 subscriptions all but about a baker's dozen Have paid September and October dues and about nine of those will do so. leaving about three whole vision does not take in a chamber of commerce. They will by and by. Against that, we have three new members. But think of 221 out-of ? 224! All live-wire, enthusiastic "BApsters, the kind who do things! No wonder a Durham paper saw fit to commend our town in its Sunday editorial; although it did not knpw this, it knows Roxboro people. J Besides that, we have had installed a telephone, complete furniture, a young lady stenographer, made plans for almost a year's work, and apent a week to good advantages, aa previously related, securing much-needed accomodations. We are not boasting, but we arej happy to be tHis far established. NOW, another month, November, has arrived, and statements for dues have been mailed every memeber. You have promised?and given so far ?your cooperation. We ask. you to go ope step fartehr and mail or bring in your checks Dromtlv. ft wilt &0V ONE CENT in drop letter "to1 jnaii ifc,,.J>ut will'cost your community] n lot in time if your Chart^ber of I Commerce has to stop work wihlc j the Secretary goes for it. If you are one of tWjse still due for September I and October we urge your further, cooperation to the extent of paying] to date. Now, let's all pull together for Roxboro. SERIOUS ACCIDENT Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Timberlake of Helena, *N. C., were painfully, if not seriously, injured Last Sunday, nigWt.

Ttta driver of the car, Ed Wilson, had been causing ttouble around Helena during the drfy and is said to have been intoxicated. Arid besides! this charge was driving his-^cfrr-wiih-i out a flight, and -exceeding the speed limit. After the accident he did not stop, but was soon arrested and at a preliminary, hbaring before _Squi re Newton the ca3e was continued until Decembet 5th, the defendant^ bound over under a ten thousand dollar bond Failing to give bond he was carried in wurtJ-im county . jan Tor sat? keepingr.

At tW> beginning the farmer* "who were selling on the open market seemed to be more anxious to sell than the farmer selling the new way, but th4 ^Asjociation members are delivering more freely now and thousands and thousands of pounds are daily being delivered at . the Co-operative houses here. One of the good things jvitlJ the Co-operatives is that the pri:e does not change and tl^re is no necessity for hurrying it on the market. The price is fixed and everyone knows just what his advances yvill bo as scon as his load ia graded. The laugh now is on tHe Association 4nen, for they only ' receive. a smell ''portion compared to the open sale, but in a few months the money received by the open sale man will be gone, and thdh when the Co-Ops receives his second and third payment Ib will nave money and can laugh at his <5pcn sale friend. ? * V* SOCIAL NEWS.
